In this study on the effect of suggestion by personal influence on the vividness of voluntarily aroused images, the results did not indicate any reliable differences in suggestibility between the five sense fields. Irregular fluctuations are more prominent than the differences in central tendencies. A person who is suggestible in one sense also tends to be suggestible in other senses, but these correlations are frequently low and unreliable. Women seem on the average to be about one-fifth more suggestible than men, but the individual differences in the same sex are the most striking feature. The correlations between suggestibility and class standing are practically zero. The experiment showed for the most part that although the normal judgment of the vividness of certain types of imagery can be definitely influenced by suggestion, this influence is for the most part small.
